This restaurant is very much in need of new management. When you enter there's a strong mildew odor. Then you stand to be seated only to be ignored for awhile. the service is slow and the food takes quite awhile to be served. read more

It took an unbelievably long time for our party of five to get seated. The restaurant wasn't full, yet the staff seemed quite overwhelmed during our long wait. Once seated, things seemed to move more quickly, including ordering and the arrival of our drinks. Most of the food also showed up in a timely fashion, though one patron's plate showed up incomplete. It took two different prompts to staff members (once to our waitress, once to the manager checking on things) to get the order right. Most of the group found our selections to be fairly well prepared. I heard particularly good things about the pancakes and the "moons over my hammy." I went with the country fried steak and eggs, and I would rate my choice as just okay. The steak was tender but wasn't an especially large portion. My eggs were overcooked a bit, and I found the hash browns a bit harder in texture than I prefer. All of it was edible, and none of it tasted bad, but I wouldn't order it again. We don't have a lot of Denny's locations in my area, but their franchises are usually solid performers based on my previous visits. This one didn't measure up, I'm afraid. read more

My second time here , this is hands down the slowest Denny's I've ever been to , been sitting here for over an hour waiting for our food , there are ten customers here , two cooks and two wait staff, what is the issue here ? The same door dash guy has been there three times to pick up orders and here everyone still sits . Never again read more

I returned to this location after having one of the worst experiences I'd ever had with a restaurant. The second and third visits have been MUCH BETTER! A large part of my experience on my first visit centered around poor service. On my subsequent visits the service has been excellent and the food was great. I'd highly recommend this location going forward. read more

After driving back home from Raleigh, I wanted something hot and a fresh cup of coffee. I ventured out to this Denny's location for the first time. The service was slow, almost non-existent. Despite bad service, my order was hot and fresh. I just wished I could have had a little more coffee. Of course, the bill was all messed up. Probably a first and last visit. read more

I waited 67 minutes for these mustard mangos with a side of niche fruit I ordered. I also ordered a side of chicken stars, and they came out with extra diddyblud when I specifically asked for phonk sauce. When I finished my meal, I found that it made me incredibly gassy, and I felt as if this restaurant needed a hero. 1 star. Would not profen again. read more

if I could give them 0 stars I would it took 10 min. to be seated and then 10 min to take my order and when I finally got my food it was cold from sitting so long on the counter I will never eat there again read more

I had a great experience my waitress Heather was amazinggggg definitely will be back and hope to get heather. she has a great personality!!!! read more

Haven't been there in several months. Last time I went service was slow and we had to wait quite a while for our meal. Food was zoo once we got it. read more

This has got to be the worst restaurant i've ever been to. From the workers bad attitude and ignoring us to the long wait for low quality food. I will absolutely never be back read more

Great food, got some pancakes, bacon, hash brown and eggs. Everything was on point and perfect temperature. The butter on the pancakes were a little weird in taste, but other than that, it was good. read more

Stopped for breakfast. After an hour my husbands order was cold and not correct. I recieved a burnt waffle no sides. We sent them back. Asked cashier to pay for our coffee and tea. They refused due to the service. I thought Denny's was finally on the right track and consistent but I was so wrong!​ read more

Out of everything. Menu said red roasted potatoes but we got regular potatoes. Vegetable medley consisted of broccoli and a few specs of mushrooms. No ice cream for the apple crisp. And no to go boxes. read more

This Denny's location has many great employees and Lili and Ashley L. are some of the best. The decorations are a beautiful personal touch and I thought Ashley did an awesome job on them. The other day we also had a wonderful server named Amelia/Mia. We appreciate these women and wish them a wonderful Mother's Day and I hope they all get raises and bonuses because they deserve it for all they do for all their customers. read more

This is one of the few places around that's open for Christmas dinner. We got here before 6pm so we only waited about 15 minutes to be seated, instead of the usual 2-hr wait during the Christmas dinner rush. My food came out quickly since I only ordered a salad and dessert, but my husband waited 40 minutes on his order of the featured steak combo to come out before being told that they were out of the chicken tenders it was supposed to come with (and they were out of fries, too). read more

The one in forest city North Carolina Spindale area was substandard lack of employees to help food quality was not usual of the par I understand service is slow because lack of employees because of the pandemic therefore we will try again hopefully you'll be better next time read more

We didn't even get to eat. They gave me a cup with lipstick and coffee stains from the previous person still on the cup. No thank you. Service people were fine, but there's a dishwasher there for a reason. read more

Food is great, but the service is slower than Christmas. There aren't enough employees to cover the shifts most of the time and you better be ready to sit for at least an hour for your food. It's been this way for years sadly. The employees that do work there have confidential conversations in front of everyone, which I feel is unprofessional. read more

Hostess was rude and skipped over us for several other parties. Because of this, we were told to sit at separate booths instead of accommodating our party of 6 in two booths side by side. After finally being seated, we were told that half of the menu was unavailable. Very rude staff, terrible service and bad customer service. read more

Was totally ignoredfor over 20 minutes, while other guests were waited on. This has become typical of this particular location. Always short staffed and consistent bad attitude of those who do show up to work. I would reccomend that you go elsewhere if you want prompt, courteous service. If I could give negative stars I would happily do so. read more

I personally think their food is good and the service is fine, I never really have any problems with any of them hopefully they can become more recognized for their good work. One of the manager's there are very helpful and hard working and I've never seen someone so dedicated before, I wish them good luck in on the future and encourage them to keep up the hard work! read more

Do Not waste your time. Horrible! Disorganized. Waited over 40 minutes for our food. Save yourselves and skip it. It's a shame that The Shak down the street seems to be out of business. It was a great breakfast place and since we are from out of town this was our horrendous alternative. Food was undercooked and disgusting. read more

Waiting 30 minutes and still counting. Waitress walked passed and still haven't gave a refill it is 1:30 in the morning and like 3 people in here and neither of us all gotten our food and one has been waiting 45 minutes. "Update" they brought me mayo in a bowl I plainly said packet. Keep in mind we didn't get our food for an hour. And so I stole the cup and the bowl they gave me out of spite read more

Man has Denny's quality gone downhill. My wife and I ordered the skillets and my daughter ordered the Red White and Blue pancakes. The food on the menu looks so plentiful and delicious, but the actual food looks nothing like the menu. Over cooked potatoes that stuck to the skillet, eggs were runny and toast came cold. The pancakes that had blueberries in them, were so undercooked they had the uncooked batter in the middle. I wonder what the profit margin is on coffee? $2.19? The manager took off the pancake breakfast but bill still came to $23 for two entrées and two coffees.Unfortunatly, the only other options in this area on Sunday is Waffle House(Grease) or Carolina Café, but was closed today for the holiday. And BTW, there was a minor drip coming from ceiling onto carpet next to us at nearby table. Brought it to manager's attention. He said Thank You, that's why we're not sitting anyone there. Uh! how about a bucket or something, at least rope off area. People would walk by and get dripped on. read more

Very polite service. Smiles on everyone, and please and thank you all over the place! Also they even decorated for the holiday=} read more

It was 5 am, it was my first time in Rutherfordton, and I read some low rated reviews for this Restaurant. I love Denny's sizzlin skillets, so I came on in and gave them a chance. I'm glad I did. The staff was friendly, service was great, food was prepared quickly, and everything was cooked just the way I like it. This Denny's gets a thumbs up from me. read more

Everywhere else with breakfast was closed on July 4th so we ended up here. As usual it was mediocre at best. It took forever to get our food. I had the sampler app with cheese sticks, chicken tenders, and cheese quesadilla. :-/ The others in my party who ordered breakfast items seemed reasonably happy with theirs. The service was very good. read more

Best to find your breakfast in a dumpster!!!! This place was a total disaster! The eggs that I requested to be "SOFT SCRAMBLED" came out hard. Didn't eat the eggs. AND, the eggs were room temp, too. I complained to the pitifully unqualified, rude, intellectually challenged "waitress" and she said: "you need to take that up with the cook!" No! I am not kiddin' about this. Once every five years I refuse to leave a tip. This was one of those times. Hey! Saved me five bucks!!! The bacon and sausage were room temp and I took one small bite out of the sausage and left the rest on my plate. Didn't eat the super limp bacon. The pancakes were good! Hard to screw up pancakes, huh? Adios, Denny's!!!! Not for nothing would I ever eat at one of these abysmal places again. read more

Got seated, and my server never came back to our table but still walked by numerous times. After 30 minutes, had to go to the front desk just to ask for a server to take our order. All in all, awful experience. We spent two hours+ in here and on top of that, the food was well below average. I wouldn't send my worst enemy here. read more

Good food. Coffee was good. Very sweet staff. Workers worked hard to make everyone happy. Manager was present and working hard to please everyone. This was our first time at this location and we will return. read more

I absolutely without a doubt hate this Denny's I will drive to Shelby to eat at Denny's before I eat at this Denny's the staff there are very very slow very uncaring the food always takes forever you run out of drink and when your food does come most of the time its wrong my waitress smells like cigarettes every time I come in there horrible place read more

Last time I went it took 2 hr. to get fed and the place was not that busy. Like I said, that was the LAST time I will go.

November 3, 2019...terrible breakfast...cold coffee..eggs and breakfast meat were cold when arrived at table...had to ask for silverware...syrup bottle was so sticky my napkin stuck to it when I had to use it.....we were so shocked since we have always loved Denny's...will not be returning...when I said something to the cashier..all she could say that they will try better... read more

I work a third shift job. Ordered from this place almost every night. Last night I ordered chocolate chip pancakes with bacon and a burger for my coworker. The burger was RAW. Not only were my pancakes cold, the chocolate chips were PILED on top. Enough to send a diabetic into a coma. Half of my bacon was not cooked properly. Tonight I ordered chocolate pancakes again. The pancakes were great. Instead of the bacon I asked for, I was served sausage which was also raw through the middle. My mac n cheese was cold. Not lukewarm. Not room temperature. Cold. I will not ever eat or order anything from this restaurant again. Two nights in a row that I've had complaints about my food. If I get food poisoning, I'm suing. read more

It's alway something inside Denny's! The food is either horrible or good, the service is either really crappy or good. You sometimes can get good food and bad service or bad food and good service. read more

Sat at the bar and watched cooks grab food with their bare hands. Took over a hour for the food to come out and it was cold. This place is not worth it. Go to a local diner rather than here. There are much better options near by like Carolina Cafe and Greens Cafe. read more

I don't understand why this location has a low rating. I ate here the other day and the place was very clean, the waitstaff was efficient and the food was excellent. It has been years since I ate at a Denny's and the food was better than I remembered. I'm going to frequent this place more often. read more

Treat ur staff better. Treat ur staff better. Portions size and price are starting to make this place not worth it. The food is ok and not great which is ok when it was cheaper than the other places around.... But not when it's more expensive read more

this place fucking sucks. i walked in and they start complaining saying "not taking any more tables should have came in 2 hours ago" like um excuse. last time i checked this place is open 24 hours. thank you next bitch. if you are miserable at your job then quit. or at least act like you do so you don't make your customers miserable. ohhhhhh and also. found a gnat on my ice cube DISGUSTING. this is a disgrace to roco. read more
